"They have passed away as the swift ships, as the eagle that swoops on the prey."
— Job 9:26, World English Bible
“They are passed away as the swift ships: as the eagle that hasteth to the prey.”
“They are passed away as the swift ships; As the eagle that swoopeth on the prey. ”
“They glide by like reed boats, like an eagle that swoops down on its prey.”
“They have passed by as ships carrying fruits, as an eagle flying to the prey.”
“They go rushing on like reed-boats, like an eagle dropping suddenly on its food.”
“They are passed away as the swift ships: as the eagle that hasteth to the prey.”
If the scourge kills suddenly, he will mock at the trial of the innocent.
The earth is given into the hand of the wicked. He covers the faces of its judges. If not he, then who is it?
"Now my days are swifter than a runner. They flee away, they see no good,
They have passed away as the swift ships, as the eagle that swoops on the prey.
If I say, 'I will forget my complaint, I will put off my sad face, and cheer up;'
I am afraid of all my sorrows, I know that you will not hold me innocent.
I shall be condemned. Why then do I labor in vain?
